Yank.... throwing the scale out the window doesn't sound like a bad plan AT ALL! Go for it! You may find that life will become MUCH more pleasant!

I get frustrated too.... I go MUCH longer than 4 weeks without a loss. My last stall was 4 months. Does getting frustrated help me? No. Learning to accept that this will take time....THAT helps me. Going with the flow, baby....going with the flow!
